Introduction	In 2011 I wrote a blog following my training for my debut marathon, London. This evolved into my first book, 'Running Blind: An Alternative View of the London Marathon'. I now ocasionally post on subjects including running and theatre. My writing background is mostly online, as deputy editor of the online music magazine www.roomthirteen.com (2005 to 2009(, the travel site www.gapyear.com (2004 to 2005) and ocasional other contributions to publications both print and online about music, sport and disability issues.
